The company examined more than 200,000 customer policies between 1997 and 2012
to determine this list. The cars were judged using Warranty Direct's Reliability
Index, which rates reliability by looking at a number of factors
including how often the car breaks down, the cost of repair, mileage and
age. This is used to calculate a Reliability Index rating; the lower the
score, the more reliable the car.

The list of the least reliable cars consists primarily of luxury models,
usually due to the high cost of repair. Click through this gallery to see
